  • More details about your skills

    My main vocation and occupation is plant management, but I'm very versatile and always keen on making new skills.
    I've helped my friends at Quinta da Chumbaria build two wooden decks and a pergola and a professional carpenter build a floor structure and terrace for a yurt.
    I have loads of experience painting, specially with lime.
    I had classes of electricity and electronics in school and I've setup the solar system on the roof of my van.
    I have intermediate skills in automotive and computer maintenance and repair.
    For the past year, on every Friday, I help out in a local organic social canteen.
    I'm vegan, but I have no problem cooking animal products, if required.
    I left home at nineteen and lived alone since I was twenty (I'm 31 now), so I'm very comfortable with the household chores.
